Definitions
- Network usage analysis is another emerging field that monitors usage patterns of subscribers to assist service providers in meeting their subscribers' needs.
- Systems for network analysis provide information about how a service provider's services are being used and by whom. This is vital business information that a service provider can use to identify fast-moving trends, to establish competitive prices, and to define new services or subscriber classes as needed.
- Usage-based billing and network analysis systems begin with the same raw usage data. However, due to differences in function, the data is handled in dramatically different ways. Service providers that implement both usage-based billing and network analysis conventionally store large quantities of data for long periods of time thus requiring extensive data storage systems. This can be a very expensive undertaking for network service providers.
- a method for monitoring a network includes collecting data containing information on usage of a network by subscribers. The method further aggregates the data for a first type of usage-based function. Further, the method, simultaneously with the aggregating of the data, samples the data for a second, different type of usage-based function.
- a usage monitoring system in another embodiment, includes a usage collector that collects usage records from a network.
- the system also includes a first usage processor, responsive to the usage collector, that aggregates data in the collected usage records to form a first set of data for a first type of usage-based function.
- the system further includes a second usage processor, responsive to the usage collector, that samples the usage records simultaneously with the first usage processor to form a second, reduced set of data for a second type of usage-based function.
- a system for monitoring usage of a network includes a first usage processor that aggregates data in records of usage of a network by subscribers for a first type of usage-based function.
- the system further includes a second usage processor that selects samples of the records for a second type of usage-based function.
- the first usage processor aggregates the data simultaneously with the second usage processor selecting samples of the records.
- FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of a usage monitor for a network.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram of one embodiment of a usage record for use in monitoring the usage of a network.
- FIG. 3 is a flow chart of one embodiment of a process for monitoring the usage in a network.
- Usage monitor 100 is configured to monitor usage of the network 102 to enable the service provider to perform two different types of functions based on the same usage data provided by the network 102 .
- usage monitor 100 is configured to enable the service provider to implement both usage-based billing and network analysis using the same data provided by the network 102 .
- Network 102 provides messages to usage monitor 100 regarding each use of the network 102 to carry traffic to or from a subscriber.
- the messages comprise usage records from network elements in network 102 .
- the messages comprise usage records from routers, switches, transmitters, receivers, data logs, management terminals, etc. in the network.
- the messages comprise messages from routers that contain information regarding each flow of traffic through the network.
- a flow of traffic is a unidirectional stream of packets between given source and destination end points through network 102 .
- Usage monitor 100 collects and processes the usage messages from network 102 .
- Usage monitor 100 includes usage collector 104 .
- Usage collector 104 receives the messages from network 102 with the information on the usage of network 102 .
- Usage collector 104 provides this information to first and second usage processors 106 and 108 such that each of usage processors 106 and 108 receive a complete set of the collected messages from network 102 .
- first usage processor 106 and second usage processor 108 are separate processors.
- first usage processor 106 and second usage processor 108 are implemented on the same processor.
- one or more of first usage processor 106 and second usage processor 108 are implemented in a bank of multiple processors.
- First usage processor 106 aggregates data in the usage messages from network 102 .
- First usage processor 106 provides the aggregated data to first usage-based function 110 for further processing.
- first usage-based function 110 is a usage-based billing function.
- Second usage processor 108 selectively retains a subset of the usage messages received from network 102 .
- sample means a finite part of a statistical population whose properties are studied to gain information about the whole.
- the samples are provided to second usage-based function 112 .
- second usage-based function 112 is a network analyzer function that is used to assist the service provider in planning modifications to its network or service offerings by identifying trends in network use, etc.
- Second usage processor 108 processes the data from usage collector 104 substantially simultaneously with the processing of the data by first usage processor 106 .
- the term “simultaneous” means occurring at, substantially at, or close to the same time.
- First usage processor 106 creates a set of data that is an aggregation of the usage data and is suitable for use by a first type of usage-based function such as a billing function.
- Second usage processor 108 selectively retains a second, reduced set of data that is based on samples of the usage data and is suitable for use by a second, different type of usage-based function such as a network analysis function.
- the larger, aggregate data set generated by first usage processor 106 is maintained for a shorter period of time, e.g., a few months for billing purposes, and the smaller, reduced data set produced by the second usage processor 108 is maintained for a longer period of time to allow for network analysis.
- the reduced set of data is maintained for a longer period of time thereby reducing the data storage requirements for the service provider.
- usage monitor 100 processes messages relating to usage of network 102 for first and second usage-based functions 110 and 112 .
- a usage message is created and provided to usage monitor 100 .
- This message is collected in usage collector 104 .
- the data collected in usage collector 104 is further processed by first and second usage processors 106 and 108 .
- first usage processor 106 aggregates the usage information in usage collector 104 to create a first set of data for a usage-based billing function 110 .
- Second usage processor 108 samples the usage information in usage collector 104 substantially simultaneously with the operation of the first usage processor 106 .
- the second usage processor 108 produces a second, reduced data set for a second usage-based function 112 .
- usage monitor 100 provides first and second usage-based functions 110 and 112 with separate sets of data to implement their respective functions starting with the same data but applying separate processes.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram of one embodiment of a usage record, indicated generally at 200 , for use in monitoring the usage of a network.
- Usage record 200 comprises the usage messages provided by network 102 of FIG. 1 and collected in usage collector 104 .
- the message or usage record 200 includes a number of fields that contain various statistics about a particular flow, e.g., source address 202 , destination address 204 , time 206 , size 208 , and type of service 210 .
- the source address 202 and destination address 204 fields contain addresses, e.g., IP addresses, Media Access Control (MAC) addresses, or other appropriate addresses, for the source and destination endpoints of a traffic flow.
- MAC Media Access Control
- the time field 206 contains information on the duration of a flow, e.g., the start time, the end time or the total duration of the flow.
- the size field 208 contains an indication of the quantity of data, e.g., the number of packets, number of bytes, etc. in a particular flow.
- the type of service field 210 contains an indication of the type of service provided for the flow, e.g., constant bit rate.
- the usage records are supplemented with other information to provide usage functions 110 and 112 with information on these and other specific aspects of the usage of network 102 .
- the usage message is transmitted to the usage monitor 100 as a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) message.
- UDP User Datagram Protocol
- FIG. 3 is a flow chart of one embodiment of a process, indicated generally at 300 , for monitoring the usage in a network.
- the process begins at block 302 with the collection of usage information.
- the process collects the usage information from messages or usage records from the network.
- the usage records comprise messages from network elements in the network such as routers and the like.
- the usage records comprise messages from routers that contain information regarding each flow of data through the network.
- the usage information is processed substantially simultaneously for two types of usage-based functions at blocks 306 and 308 , respectively.
- a first process is performed on the usage information. In one embodiment, this first process aggregates data from the usage information to produce a first set of data.
- the first set of data is passed to a first type of usage-based function, e.g., a usage-based billing function, for further processing.
- the usage information is processed for use in another type of usage-based function. In one embodiment, the process retains samples of the usage information to produce a second, reduced set of data.
- the reduced set of data is passed to a second usage-based function, e.g., a network analysis function, for further processing.
- the methods and techniques described here may be implemented in digital electronic circuitry, or with a programmable processor (for example, a special-purpose processor or a general-purpose processor such as a computer) firmware, software, or in combinations of them.
- Apparatus embodying these techniques may include appropriate input and output devices, a programmable processor, and a storage medium tangibly embodying program instructions for execution by the programmable processor.
